Spectacular Beach! And an affordable way onto Cathead Bay! This is more than just a lakefront property-its an invitation to craft unforgettable moments with family and friends. Opportunities like this dont come around often. The sand here feels soft underfoot, inviting you to sprint across the beach and dive into the clear waters of Lake Michigan. This is my test for the ideal beach, having grown up on Northport Bay myself. If you can sprint from the beach into the water like this without having run over rocks, its the perfect beach. And, as you can see, this beach gets an A+ Its gently sloping, sandy bottom makes it perfect for visitors of all ages, providing a safe and fun environment for little ones to play and explore. As the day winds down, gather your loved ones to witness breathtaking sunsets over three iconic islands-North Fox, South Fox, and North Manitou. Its the kind of beauty that makes every evening magical. For those with a spirit of adventure, Leelanau State Park is just a short walk away from the end of this private drive. This stretch of shoreline is known for the mystical beauty youll experience as you hike along Lake Michigans edge. Prefer the water? Launch your kayak or favorite watercraft and set out across the crystal-clear waters of Cathead Bay. Your journey to this hidden gem begins when you turn off N Lighthouse Road onto the peaceful N Cathead Bay Drive. Along the way, youll pass the protected lands of the Leelanau Conservancys Lighthouse West Natural Area, perfect for hiking and immersing yourself in nature. Just beyond, youll find the cottage, nestled along one of the most breathtaking shorelines Lake Michigan has to offer. Note: the cottage is not "winterized." The cottage was only used during the warm months and was never intended to be occupied in a Michigan Winter.
